BOOK REVIEW- Shadow of Deceit
Shannon Reidel is still recovering from the car accident that killed her husband and now dangerous people are coming after her demanding something she doesn't know anything about. Add to that the FBI agent Tony Crazaniak, believes her dead husband Tyler was involved in something criminal and that she needs protection. The attraction between the two of them is something they both resist because there is just too much at stake; finding the missing blue diamond and the location of the mine is only the start. Shannon's love ones are being threatened too.
This story had action right out the gate and Shannon was no perfect, retiring heroine. I liked the fact that she still struggled with the physical limitations from the car accident, it made her more real. I did find that although the story started out fast, it did seem to slow a bit about halfway through or so, I think that had more to do with Shannon and Tony trying to get to know each other better. I did like the touches of humor in the story. "The Crazaniak Effect", is one example; which I am not going to explain. . There were times when Shannon was a bit too independent and put herself into dangerous situations, which made me want to slap her in the head. Dumb, dumb, dumb. I would think for a smart woman she sure made some dumb decisions. Of course that helped keep the story going, I know that.
I liked Tony's friend, Thiggy and his side story as well. Unique and different.
"I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review."
